Amsterdam Tech Collective

The best conversations rarely happen in conference rooms.

This summer, the Amsterdam Tech Collective is bringing together founders, builders, operators, investors and enterprise leaders for intimate boat sessions on Amsterdam's canals.

We believe the best ideas emerge when the right people are in the same room, or in this case, on the same boat.

Rather than large networking events, each session brings together 

 around one focused topic related to AI, emerging technologies, entrepreneurship or innovation. The intimate setting, small group size and relaxed atmosphere are designed to encourage practical insights, meaningful introductions and long-term professional relationships.

To keep every discussion relevant and engaging, participants are curated based on their background, interests and the theme of each session. Selected participants will typically receive invitations several days in advance, with the exact departure location shared approximately 24 hours before departure.

We will be hosting two boat session time slots on Tuesday, 25 August: 16:45-18:30 and 18:45-20:30. When registering, please indicate your preferred time slot.

To keep each discussion focused and valuable, the Amsterdam Tech Collective team will curate each group based on participants’ background, expertise, interests and the theme of the session. We will confirm your assigned time slot, discussion topic and agenda a few days before 25 August.

This helps us bring together the right mix of founders, operators, investors and experts for each session, so every conversation is relevant, practical and useful for everyone on board.

, allowing everyone to actively contribute to the conversation and get to know one another.

Whether you're building an AI startup, leading digital transformation, investing in emerging technologies, or shaping the future of technology, we'd love to welcome you on board.

Membership is free. Places are limited, and invitations are extended based on the theme and participant mix.

Amsterdam weather can be unpredictable. If conditions make it unsafe or impractical to go ahead with the boat session, we will reschedule the session and inform selected participants as soon as possible.
